Beginning in 2023 there are great tax incentives for business owners with less than 50 employees. They can potentially receive a tax credit up to ____% of Retirement admin cost for the first three years. This is up from the 50% that was allowed with Secure Act 1.0

Tax credit up to 100% of Retirement admin costs for business owners with less than 50 employees for the first 3 years.
